Thanks! I am super happy! Columbia was my first choice, but now I am actually leaning more towards Western U since the school is local for me and much, much cheaper. I also applied to MGH and I'll find out from the rest of the schools early next month!

Hi everyone! I've been reading this thread for a while now and it's been really helping me get through this crazy admission process. I posted a while back, asking if anyone had heard yet from Columbia. It seems that people started receiving their decision letters about 10 days ago, and everyday that I checked my mailbox, I never saw a Columbia logo. I gave up this past weekend and thought to myself, maybe it wasn't meant to be and I had started to prepare myself for the rejection letter. HOWEVER, I received an email yesterday from Columbia when I got home from a HORRIBLE microbiology midterm. I could not sleep all night and waited to call the admissions office this morning. It turns out, they had the wrong address on my file and I was actually accepted! They are sending out my acceptance letter again today and I cannot wait to finally see it in writing! Although I thought I didn't get in to Columbia, all of the postings that I have been reading have been so supportive and helpful. It's helped me to try and stay positive and I wish everyone all the best! :)

Hey bruinlaura, I was a bruin myself, and am in the same situation as you, waiting to hear back from schools. eek! I only applied to Columbia, Mass Gen, and Western U. I also applied to Columbia and was told that decisions would be made by the end of January. Have you heard anything yet? I am getting soo nervous. Good luck with finding out about all the schools you applied to!
